Authorities say a Morrilton teenager has died after falling off an overlook at Petit Jean Mountain.

The Conway County Sheriff's office said witnesses told officers 16-year-old Allen Walters was climbing on rocks off the Cedar Falls hiking trail when he fell between 90 feet and 120 feet around noon on Saturday. Witnesses say they heard him yell, but couldn't reach him in time.

Walters was out on a hiking trip with relatives and friends when he fell. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

Sheriff Mike Smith recommends visitors to Petit Jean State Park stay on the trails and not venture off the paths.
